1/3 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg yolk
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
1/2 teaspoon strawberry extract
2 tablespoons freeze-dried strawberry powder
2 teaspoons pink gel food coloring
3/4 cup all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup white chocolate chips
Heat the oven to 350 F.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the butter and sugar. Beat until light and fluffy.
Add the egg yolk, almond and strawberry extracts, freeze-dried strawberry powder and gel food coloring. Mix well.
In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ones, and mix until fully combined.
Add the chocolate chips and mix until distributed.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and place in the fridge until the oven has finished heating.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and drop tablespoons of dough onto the baking sheet, leaving a few inches between each. Roll each piece of dough into a ball and put back on the baking sheet.
Bake 7 to 12 minutes, or until puffed and no longer shiny in the center but not yet browned.
Let cool slightly on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
